102. Shaping Better +R Trainers (ft. Adele Shaw)

What a wonderful lil episode this was! I hope it gave you guys some solid ideas of how we can work to improve the way that +R trainers present themselves, the science of behavior and training, and how we can all work to better the lives of our equine companions. Guest, Adele Shaw, and I attempt (as much as our very tangent prone brains allow) to cover a shaping plan from top to bottom explaining the bad and correcting for the good. Except this shaping plan isn't for the horses this time; it's all about us, the positive reinforcement trainers. So, if you are one, thinking of becoming one, or have interacted with one in the past, this episode is a great deep dive into why +R trainers are sometimes mildly unbearable and why other times, they are anything but!
